There are rarely any good
thriller genre authors in India who can surprise you with their books. Even if
there are few, they keep on writing stories based on the same background which
makes their book and topics predictive after some time. But every time I read a
good thrilling novel, I want to go, hold the author’s hand and make him write
more and more. I have completed reading another great thriller by the
debutante, Abhinav Singh, named “The Last Attractor of Chaos”. And let me
frankly give you a statement which will sum up the whole review and make you
decide whether to read this book or not: This book definitely does not look as If
written by a complete debutante. Yes! It is that good and almost perfect.
Abhinav Singh’s writing style is
exactly how a thriller author should write. Once you start reading the book,
you will keep on wanting to turn the page and read what happens next and will
not stop until the whole story is not completed. The only problem here is that
in the end you realize another part of this book will actually conclude the
story and this is still not the end. This is what I believe is cheating on the
part of publishers that they never write on the cover page itself that the book
is Part 1 of the series indicating that this is not a complete book itself.
Anyway, the way author has blended several different physical and technical
elements in this thriller to make it more exciting is commendable as trying
anything as such is very risky considering if Indian readers will like it or not
but the way he has handled the whole mixture of theories is incredible and
outstanding work.
The author’s knowledge and
research work are totally evident from the way he has gone into depth in
justifying the theories through his story. There are several moments in the
book which will give you goosebumps for sure. The characterization is very
powerful and the way author keeps on switching between past and present is
another great deal to crack for anyone writing such a complex story with different
timelines. Still, I have a complaint that author should have tried switching
timelines more frequently which could have made the story and narration more
powerful rather than moving into a timeline and then staying there for an
extremely long time. The pre-climax and climax of the book is also handled quite
brilliantly which never lets you leave you seat and keep on reading till the
last page. Abhinav Singh is surely here to stay for long and I wish his 2nd
book is better than this one as I am sure he will himself have to face lot of
challenge in beating his own standard. I give this book 4.25 star out of 5.
Thanks.
